HELP - How to install or enable mysqli extension?

Hi,

Recently i have installed CWP in my VPS (Centos 6 minimal x64). Everything works fine, performance aceptable. I had to switch the version of PHP to PHP 5.2.17, everything OK.
At this point, the problem starts here. The extension mysqli is not installed or enabled (indicated in phpmyadmin screen). Only mysql available.

Could someone tell me how I can enable or install it if is not installed?

Thanks in advance

while recompiling just add --with-mysqli and it would work or by commenting out ;extension=php_mysqli.dll in nano /usr/local/php/php.ini
